The video tutorial focuses on the differences between HTTP/REST APIs and Websockets. It explains that while REST APIs are client-initiated, Websockets allow for bidirectional communication, making them ideal for applications like chat. The tutorial provides a practical example using two browsers and demonstrates how Websockets enable real-time message exchange. It also covers the implementation of Websockets using Socket.IO, highlighting the setup and code structure for enabling communication between client and server.
